7-OH (7-hydroxymitragynine) is regulated in Minnesota, where state law names 7-hydroxymitragynine and makes it a crime to sell kratom or 7-hydroxymitragynine to people under a set age. A 2026 amendment raises that age from 18 to 21 effective August 1, 2026. The law does not cap 7-hydroxymitragynine concentration. Federally, the FDA recommended in 2025 that the DEA schedule concentrated 7-OH, but 7-OH remains federally unscheduled as of 2026.
